Unable to enter password into windows sign in page - in unattended mode

Hey everyone,

 

I’m working with a bot that identifies duplicate files on a website. During execution, the bot navigates to the site, which then prompts an SSO login. At this point, the bot is required to select the account and enter the password. However, it fails to populate the password in the required field.

 

After investigating, I found that in Browser Automation → "Populate text field on web page", the encrypted text option doesn’t support using variables as input. When the password is hardcoded, the bot is able to fill the Windows sign‑in password field successfully, but when using a variable, it fails to enter the password.

 

Is there a solution or workaround for this issue? We cannot hardcode passwords for security reasons.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!
